Slide Example of Vertical and Horizontal Shifts Describe how the graph of would be obtained by translating the graph of Sketch the graphs on the same xy-plane. Solution is shifted 2 units left and 6 units down. The graph changes from decreasing to increasing at the point (  2,  6). y = |x+ 2|  6 y = |x|

Slide Effects of Shifts on Domain and Range The domains and ranges of functions may or may not be affected by translations. –If the domain (or range) is a horizontal (or vertical) shift will not affect the domain (or range). –If the domain (or range) is not a horizontal (or vertical) shift will affect the domain (or range). Example Determine the domain and range of the following shifted graph.

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Slide Applying a Horizontal Shift to an Equation Model The table lists U.S. sales of Toyota vehicles in millions. a. Find the corresponding equation that allows direct input of the year. b. Use the equation to estimate U.S. sales of Toyota vehicles in Solution YearVehicles The data can be modeled by the equation y = 0.1x + 1.6, where x = 0 corresponds to 2000, x = 1 to 2001, and so on. a. Because 2000 corresponds to 0, the graph of y = 0.1x would have to be shifted 2000 units to the right. Thus, the equation becomes y = 0.1(x – 2000) b. y = 0.1(2007 – 2000) = 2.3 The model estimates U.S. sales of Toyota vehicles in 2007 to be about 2.3 million.
